How to Apply for Financial Aid

Financial aid is offered on the basis of need and availability of funds, so early application is encouraged. Please follow the steps below to be considered for the loan, scholarship, and employment programs administered by the Office of Financial Aid. You will follow this same process each year in which you want financial aid. Please note the deadlines and forms needed.

Parent information is not required for graduate students applying only for Stafford, Perkins, and work study. If you think your family is “economically disadvantaged” and you want to be considered for less expensive Health Professions Student Loan (HPSL) and Loans for Disadvantaged Students (LDS), and NECO’s Fund For Education (FFE) loan, you are encouraged to provide parent information on the FAFSA so you can be considered for these more favorable loans.
